Classroom Lessons: All students have lessons with either Ms. Broyles or Ms. Colvin. Lessons cover topics such as: career and college exploration,, self-esteem, conflict resolution, bullying prevention, stress/anxiety/depression reduction, friendships, middle school transition, and character education. We encourage you to talk with your student about lessons. By discussing what they have done in guidance class, lessons will be reinforced outside the classroom.
Classroom Rules/Expectations: Great behavior is rewarded during our lessons through positive praise, stickers, compliments, High-5s from the Puppets, etc. While in classrooms, we enforce the same rules the classroom teachers expect from their students. If a child has difficulty following these rules/expectations during guidance lessons, the following actions will be taken: verbal redirection/warning, individual talk with Ms. Broyles outside of guidance, note home (this must be returned signed by their parent/guardian within one day), discussion about classroom conduct change, and an office referral. Any behavior listed in the student-parent handbook that warrants a direct office referral (see handbook) bypasses all the above actions. Individual Talks: These sessions are conducted around classroom guidance lessons and your child's schedule at school; due to the size of AES, we may not get to your child immediately. We generally meet with a student 2-4 times for school-related concerns. Recommendations for individual talks come from AES staff and faculty. |
